The Higgs boson self-coupling is a phenomenon where the Higgs interacts with itself, which can manifest in particle ...

Medieval alchemists toiled unsuccessfully to change lead into gold, but physicists at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland had better luck – though for only a microsecond. Instead of alchemy, ...

CERN, the renowned research center housing the world's largest particle accelerator, marked its 70th anniversary on Tuesday. Physicists celebrating this milestone are committed to unraveling the ...

Alchemists eat your heart out. Researchers at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider achieved the once-impossible dream of alchemists by turning lead into gold — but only for a split second. The world’s largest ...

Since its founding in 1954, high-energy physics laboratory CERN has been a flagship for international scientific collaboration. That commitment has been under strain since the Russian invasion of ...

For centuries, great thinkers of the Greco-Roman, Islamic, Medieval, and even early Enlightenment worlds investigated the possibilities of alchemy—the process of transforming base metals (i.e. lead) ...

Fresh from their historic discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, researchers using CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the main particle accelerator at the European particle-physics laboratory near ...

A May 15 post on X, formerly Twitter, (direct link, archive link) shows a video of scantily-clad people dancing and writhing on a stage before a person in a goat-headed costume comes out shouting.

Europe’s particle-physics laboratory CERN will expel hundreds of scientists who are affiliated with Russian institutions on 30 November unless they move to establishments outside of the nation. The ...

ZURICH, Sept 30 (Reuters) - The European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) will end cooperation with up to 500 scientists affiliated with Russian institutions, it said on Monday, because of ...

Forward-looking: Antimatter consists of particles with properties opposite to those of regular particles. It plays a central role in modern physics research and forms naturally through cosmic ...

There's a lot of matter around, which ensures that any antimatter produced experiences a very short lifespan. Studying antimatter, therefore, has been extremely difficult. But that's changed a bit in ...
